Effort 30% (approximately) (Criteria A)

Effort will be judged based on time spent on ALEKS. Practice is one of the key elements to success in mathematics; therefore, this component is significant in the computation of your grade. You will receive an effort grade per week as follows:

Hours
Level (1-7)
5.5+

Quizzes 30% (approximately) (Criteria C)

Every two weeks, you will have a quiz on the topics you have mastered on your ALEKS pie. There will be 12-16 questions and they will be graded based on correctness and your working.

Supercorrections 10% (approximately) (Criteria B)


After each quiz, you will you correct 2 problems in depth. These are known as supercorrections. You will communicate your understanding using words, tables, graph, and algebra and provide opportunity for you to make connections within your own understanding.
